    How do I say "be quiet" in Italian?
    Community Answer
    "Silenzio" or "silenzioso." You would use "silenzio" in situations where you need people to be quiet so you can say something yourself.

    If you take the easy way out and say "shhhhh" will Italians know you mean to be quiet?
    Community Answer
    Yes. Or just hold your finger to your mouth without saying anything to sound more polite.

    How rude is it to use the phrase Chiudi la bocca?
    Community Answer
    Very rude. In fact, some people believe it's the equivalent to an English version of shut up that uses an expletive in the phrase.

    In Italian, you say, "Va via." It is pronounced "vah veeah" In "via", the stress is on the first syllable.
